THE REDBIRD REVIEW The Cardinals were able to grab two straight wins in New York before moving down the Atlantic coast for three games in Washington. They took two of three at Citi Field to win their first series since May 21, and the two-game winning streak is their...
THE REDBIRD REVIEW After raising our hopes with a brief non-losing spell spell, the Cardinals are raising our blood pressure again. After prompting “They’re Back!” reactions, the fellers have crashed again and are 7 ½ games in back of the first-place Brewers in the NL...
THE REDBIRD REVIEW I’m looking forward to a weekend of hardball at the beautiful PNC Park in Pittsburgh, watching the Cardinals and the Pirates try to rearrange the standings in the loopy, goofy NL Central. It’s only June 2 – way too early to sweat over a division...

THE REDBIRD REVIEW Simply put, it was the best homestand of the season for the Cardinals. Returning to Busch Stadium after a 5-1 road trip to Wrigley Field and Fenway Park, the Redbirds took on two first-place teams and had no problem in going 5-2 against the Brewers...
